Every now and then,
Soft as breath upon my skin,
I feel you come back again,
And it's like you haven't been,
Gone a moment from my side.
Like the tears were never cried;
Like the hands of time are holding you and me.

And with all my heart I'm sure,
We're closer than we ever were.
I don't have to hear or see,
I've got all the proof I need.
There are more than angels watching over me,
I believe; Oh, I believe.

Now when you die your life goes on,
It doesn't end here when you're gone.
Every soul is filled with light,
It never ends if I'm right,
Our love can even reach across eternity,
I believe; Oh, I believe.

Forever, you're a part of me.
Forever, in the heart of me.
I will hold you even longer if I can.
Oh, the people who don't see the most,
See that I believe in ghosts.
If that makes me crazy, then I am,
'Cause I believe.

Oh I believe.

There are more than angels watching over me,
I believe; Oh, I believe.

Every now and then,
Soft as breath upon my skin,
I feel you come back again,
And I believe.


Memorial Poem

We do not need a special day to bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake we know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache as we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly; in death we love you still.

There will always to be a heartache, and often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory of the days when you were here.
If tears would make a staircase, and heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven and bring you home again.
We hold you close within our hearts; and there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives until we meet again.
Our family chain is broken now, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

ANOTHER DAY WITHOUT YOU

The stillness of the morning wakes me,
But I cannot see
Why there begins another day
When my son's not here with me.

The house feels strangely silent
And his room, a lonely place,
I long to touch his soft brown hair
And kiss his dear, sweet face,

I'll never get to hear him call,
"Come see what I just made!"
I'm left with only memories
Please God--don't let them fade.

Deep in my heart, his spirit lives,
His laughter I still hear.
He'll forever be my little boy,
Though I can't hold him near.

Never Forgotten

Friends may think we have forgotten
When at times they see us smile.
Little do they know the heartaches,
That our smiles hide, all the while.

Beautiful memories are wonderful things,
That last 'till the longest day.
They never wear out, they never get lost,
And can never be given away.

To some you may be forgotten,
To others, a part of the past,
But to those who love you and lost you,
You memory will always last.

SAY MY CHILDS NAME

The mention of my child's name
may bring tears to my eyes,
But it never fails to bring music to my ears.
If you are really my friend,
let me hear the music of her name!
It soothes my broken heart and sings to my soul!
